The Open Mind
The Suburbs
par
The Open Mind is a public-affairs interview program hosted by Richard D. Heffner. In thoughtful, extended conversations, Heffner speaks with guests from public life, scholarship, and the arts about ideas and issues shaping American society.
The title “The Suburbs” points to a discussion of suburban life and its place in the wider social landscape. The program’s appeal lies in its measured pace and emphasis on listening: guests have room to explain their views, while Heffner’s questions guide the exchange toward the assumptions and consequences behind them.
Rather than offering a dramatic story or quick debate, The Open Mind invites listeners into a reflective conversation. Its calm, inquisitive style suits anyone interested in how people understand the institutions, communities, and cultural changes around them.
